What's New Wednesday

Construction Strip Minky Quilt

This week there are LOTS of new models in the store. We have new quilts, pillows, bags and even die-cut hearts for a last minute Valentine project or gift!

The minky strip quilts are a popular choice here at Pine Needles, and we have some new models to tickle your fancy. The one pictured is a new model using a main print that has tractors, trucks, cars & even airplanes. An absolutely DARLING quilt for the little guy in your life!

While at Winterfest we met Patty Howard, the designer behind a fabulous line of purses and bags. We have some of her models hanging in the store (including the Real MaCoy bag and a darling scripture bag); they are sure to be must haves in your pattern collections.

One of our darling customers came in to show us a Valentine card she had made using our packages of die-cut hearts. They were so sweet that several employees bought a package of hearts to take home that very day to make their own Valentines!

One of my personal favorite new items is the "Lotsa Love" bolster pillow. I had so much fun making up the model for the shop, the embellishments are the perfect finishing touch (the picture does NOT do it justice)!

Judy whipped up a Charming Log Cabin quilt using the Fiona's Fancy fabric line by Lila Tueller for Riley Blake. We think it turned out just beautiful!

I hope you enjoyed seeing just a few of the new items in the shop this week :)

About Pine Needles

Husband and wife team Randy and Sandy Workman opened the doors of Pine Needles in August of 1996. It began as a small cross stitch store and is now proud to carry all the wonderful necessities for quilting, cross stitch, primitive embroidery and Russian punch needle. Many of the items we offer are by local artisans whose work appeals to shoppers and tourists alike. Our walls are brimming with the promise of projects to be done.
